I understand the freakout of.... "If I can't take care of it myself, I should be somewhere else!" I mean, it's why Grace was at Totally Kids for so long because the thought of her being vent dependent and at home and the possibility of intensive at home care was too overwhelming.
And skilled nursing facility is not necessarily so bad, either....just depends on what and where and how.
In other words, your poor sister, Burrell.
Right now, we have people over. The women are out in the backyard with alcohol and chatter. The children, all five, are in the living room with various distractions including screens and books. I'm hanging with the kids -- it's where my laptop is as well as my air conditioner.
Well, Jesse, your tumblr is AWESOME.
Could it be that it was featured on Huffington post...almost four weeks ago?

What?? That is also crazy.
I could not do it without you people -- I never find good new stuff to post on my own!
I know I've used "it's all downhill from here" to mean this is where it gets easy, but also "the day went downhill" to mean everything got worse. Very context dependent.
how shitballs Jesse is totally internet famous. I think we should get her on a morning tv show, or Ellen, or some such.
I was going to ask and forgot -- do you get any, some, a lot of submissions from new people?

I was just thinking this. Downhill is a direction of undefined value, apparently.
Phone (specifically iPhone) car navigators, does anyone have a dashboard mount they love? I find that Waze and/or Google Maps gives me much better local directions than my TomTom, but I don't have a good way to look at the map. Do those sticky pad ones actually work?
Oh, and my 2002 car definitely does not have enough cup holders, and the ones it does have are in totally stupid places. The two in the front seat block the AC controls when you put cups in them, and the ones in the back seat are close to the floor so kids can't reach them. Dylan's booster seat has cup/snack holders built-in, but Aeryn is out of luck for at least another two years.

In my car, the arm rest on the drivers seat blocks access to the parking break.
